End of Summer

The flame in contest
combats the chill of the eve
nature in meltdown.

Wow! Nature in meltdown is such a great way to describe the onset of cooler weather. Unfortunately, Florida has swimming weather through November in my area. Just a few chilly months. Love your haiku! Love, Carolyn
